Hm, are you speaking of the handwaving I did in
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/2348.1544474335@sss.pgh.pa.us

I wasn't really working on that for v12 --- I figured it was way

Still, if we did manage to make that work, it would remove the need
for user-visible kluges like the one discussed in this thread.
